Indicator access OnAccountItemUpdate and OnExecutionUpdate

[BartMan]

I wish for the ability to access OnAccountItemUpdate, and OnExecutionUpdate inside an indicator.


Without using an addon, I would like to expose account data inside an indicator, then my strategy can access the public bool, Qty, and dataseries.

I have automated entries running against ES, RTY, NQ and YM.

I am perfectly fine with having a long RTY and Short (ES or YM or NQ)

I want to avoid being long or short ES and NQ at the same time. It was quite exciting to be short 5 RTY and 1 NQ today in 2 accounts each but that is a great deal of excitement.
Yes it worked out $1150.

If there is a way to access an add-on from a strategy and sample that would also work.

You can already do this directly from an indicator.

You need to study Account, then just use AccountItemUpdate
and ExecutionUpdate inside your indicator.

Everything you see in the Account class can be used in
any NinjaScript object -- meaning AddOn, Indicator, or
Strategy.

Which begs the question, why is the Account class under
AddOn in the help guide hierarchy? It should probably
be relocated to come under Common ...

Here's a little hint:
Quite a bit of things documented under AddOn actually
apply to all NinjaScripts objects.

Hang in there!

Btw, study the names carefully .. for example,

The Strategy class has OnExecutionUpdate.

The Account class has ExecutionUpdate.

See that?
The 'On' prefix is missing from the Account class.

Just saying ... these things are named differently
(and have different arguments) but they effectively
do the same thing.

Thx, I figured out how to add the Addon items in my indicator yesterday afternoon.
